Abstract:
Mine ventilation is a major energy consumer in underground mines. Saving energy for the local ventilation fans in order to reduce the power consumption of the mines is an urgent issue. The solution to replace the squirrel-cage asynchronous motor by the high-efficiency motors (LSPMSM) for local ventilation fans to save electrical energy is being studied. The article refers to the optimal calculation of permanent magnets used in LSPMSM motors for mine local ventilation fans to achieve high efficiency.
